Looking for an allergy-friendly cake recipe

Hi there!

I'm trying to find a cake recipe for my nephew's first birthday--his mom really wants to make him one and take pictures. However, he's allergic to wheat (not gluten or other grains), milk, peanuts, and eggs. We do have egg replacer, milk replacer, and rice and arrowroot flour, but none of us know anything about cooking with them.

Any help, please? His birthday's on August 18.

How about a giant mochi? It's made with sweet rice flour, water, sugar, and red bean paste (or the filling of your choice; double-check that the red bean paste doesn't have any wheat in it).

Mochi is choking hazard for a small person. Much to my sadness, for not being able to feed my small person it. :(

Hence giant mochi in this case, unless it's the stickiness of the red bean paste that's the problem.
